How to reach my office: My office is in Campus Nord of UPC:

UPC Campus Nord, Modul C6-217
Jordi Girona 1-3
E-08034 Barcelona ( taxi map)

This is located at the Northwest end of Barcelona, not far from Diagonal avenue.

By Plane:

Barcelona airport is at 12 Km from the city. More information about Barcelona’s airport: www.aena.es. You can arrive with a taxi. In front of every terminal you will find a taxi stand. If they are available, they will show a green light with the text LIBRE or LLIURE (it means “available”). The approximate travel price to UPC campus Nord is around 35 €. Show this google map to the taxi driver to reach the UPC campus.

If you rent a car from the airport, please leave “El Prat del Llobregat” and take C-32B. Continue along this route and head towards Ronda de Dalt / Lleida / Girona. Close to Barcelona, take route C-32 passing close to Cornellà del Llobregat and L’Hospitalet. Take B-20 and take Exit 10 called “Carretera d’Esplugues”. Take the street called “carrer del Gran Capità” and turn left towards Sor Eulàlia d’Anzizu street (See this google map).

From downtown:

The most convenient access is by metro:

  • Get on Line 3 (green color), direction Zona Universitària. Exit at the last-but-one stop, Palau Reial. This takes 20-25 minutes from the center (e.g., Plaça Catalunya stop).
  • At the platform, it doesn’t matter whether you take the front or back exit. But after you pass the ticket counters, make sure you walk to the farthest exit, then left.
  • Make a right on the corner of the Palau Reial palace, walk uphill along its plain-looking wall, cross the street. Walk over to the c6 building . Total walking time is 8-10 minutes.
  • My office is 217 in floor 2.
  • The Zona Universitària metro stop is almost as close. If you like buses better, final stops of lines 7, 33, and 54 are also nearby.
  • Hopefully the map above makes it clear.

Also you could take a taxi. Show this google map location to the taxi driver to reach the UPC campus.
